Triad Magnetics recommends a PCB layout with a solid ground plane, minimal trace lengths, and a star-configuration for the input and output connections to minimize noise and EMI.
To ensure reliable operation in high-temperature environments, it is recommended to derate the output power of the VPT18-8800 according to the temperature derating curve provided in the datasheet, and to ensure good airflow around the device.
The maximum allowable voltage drop across the input and output connections is 1V. Exceeding this voltage drop may affect the performance and reliability of the device.
Yes, the VPT18-8800 can be used in a parallel configuration to increase output power, but it is recommended to consult with Triad Magnetics' application engineers to ensure proper design and implementation.
Triad Magnetics recommends using a pi-filter configuration with a common-mode choke and X-capacitors on the input and output lines to minimize EMI. The specific component values and configuration will depend on the application and system requirements.
